Greetings all,

Our stakeholders at 6171 Century Blvd. have raised a concern
about flooding problems on Century Blvd. and 98th Street.

They would like to make sure that LAWA and/or the Los Angeles
Bureau of Street Services address the flood control or drainage issues
for the streets that are leading into and out of LAX facilities.

Please let me know if or how the current flood control systems
are being updated. Would this be part of the LAMP project, Streetscape
project or other infrastructure improvements.

Thank you ,

Hi Omar,

The rain expected tomorrow morning through the evening could
cause flooding on Vicksburg and Century similar to what occurred a few
weeks back. As I mentioned in my previous email, we were personally
impacted with water getting into our data center. Additionally, the high
water levels presented unsafe conditions for cars driving in and out of
LAX.

Would it be possible to provide us with an update today on how
the city is planning to respond to the heavy rain starting tomorrow
morning in the LAX area?

Thank you for your help!
Remmie

Remmie, by way of this email, I am forwarding your
observations to our Council Office to notify them of the flooding
problems .

Given the amount of rain that we experienced over the
weekend, my guess is that the drainage system was simply overwhelmed.

I will ask our staff to check the drains for any debris
that might be blocking the water flow.

Hi Laurie,

Due to the rain this weekend, water flooded Vicksburg,
at times covering our sidewalks, and Century Blvd was practically a
river. Additionally, the water couldn't drain quickly enough, so it
started to get into our data center.

Have you received any updates on what failed that caused
this flooding? Are DOT or public works doing anything to remediate? We
would like to partner with you to advocate for the required
improvements .
